That story also makes me very proud of the Canadian aerospace industry. Some of the best technology and finest aircraft in aviation history has come out of here.
Speaking of news stuff, if anyone is interested I made a news page on FB around a month or so ago.... I was going to start doing some videos in the near future for doing more than just skiing news(and posting to NS). I'm still waiting on a few things, but if you wanna check out the FB page in the mean time give my page a gander here:

(If you want giving my page a like would also help me out.)
I am planning on recording myself presenting the news in the near future just trying to get some stuff set up still.

Yep, that design is 51 years old and that particular plane is 35 years old. Still nothing better for the stuff we use it for and they still make em today.
